Artist Statement
The Treasure Hunter series is inspired by differing perspectives. What seems like a disaster to one person might look like a treasure to another. I painted crows, a favourite scavenger, finding shiny gems in abandoned or lonely spaces. Each watercolour painting is mounted on wood and coated with wax medium for protection.
